Hi Question about the confederation modification - what exactly it is? I'd like f.e. confederate my vassals as Agamemnon rather quickly. With vanilla setting it's barely possible for me, it's even harder than with other danaans like Argos. On the other hand, as I go past the sea, meet new faction with no armies but in war with amazons, bam, instant confederation. Is it possible to change confederations in such a way, that they rely only on relations and ratio of power between you and your target? Possibly with higher requirements to confederate major faction, I hate when the war starts with Paris only, he loses 2 stacks on Eubea and get confederated by Eneas or Sarpedon.
Anyway, thanks for the mod, I plan a new campaign with it as those confederations made a big mess from the previous one.
Essentially, the AI prefers to only confederate with another faction when they're losing to someone else or significantly weaker than the faction asking for it. Most of the Danaans in Asia Minor, with my mods, should confederate with the Danaans from Greece relatively easily since they're weak to begin with and the Trojans are going to be hitting them from turn 1 and, I don't know about anyone else but, I usually don't even think about crossing the water until turn 25 or so. So, by the time you get over there, these other Danaans are beaten, battered and bruised to the point where confederation is really their only option. This is actually similar to how it was in the Iliad, if I remember the story right. Confederations: 1: Boost happiness by 20 factionwide 2: Give the normal diplomacy nerf, but nerfed to -10 3: Give the normal resource drain, but nerfed to -5 4: Give 15 influence factionwide Honestly, most things aren't going to be possible for a while. How long "A while" is is entirely up to CA and when they release the creationkit or whatever they give us now days. I haven't modded a total war since Attila lol
Thanks for the mod. Even with the Gathering host play as troy is really boring. I spend 50 turn and no Invasion so far. If you're mod make The ''Greek" factions more friendly with each other its a win win for me. They eventually will have to come to troy now
I played a game as Achilles to test an extreme version of this mod, and I basically became the great wall of Greece. Everything North of Phthia to Epirus was mine in 30 turns on normal veteran, because the other Danaans were all vassals minus the mechanic and I had just started confederating the larger ones lol

Do you still play or have you given up?
